Do you remember when the internet felt like a shared playground? When strangers around the world connected over the colour of a dress?The Last Good Day on the Internet sees former foreign correspondent and tech entrepreneur Mark Little take us back to a time when the web was a place of community, curiosity and potential.Until it wasn't.Having spent nearly two decades at the heart of the digital revolution -- leaving RTÉ to found two successful start-ups, Storyful and Kinzen, and working for Twitter and Spotify -- Little is one of the few who has witnessed the internet's transformation from the inside.Here, he offers an unflinching insider account of the web's rise, charting its most powerful innovations and its most damaging failures. He traces the explosive growth of the attention economy -- fuelled by Silicon Valley's relentless pursuit of scale and profit -- and exposes the harm this has wrought: toxic algorithms, and the spread of hate and misinformation, before turning to the accelerating impact of AI on our lives.Then he asks a question: what if we could take the internet back?From reclaiming control of our feeds to rediscovering authentic online communities, The Last Good Day on the Internet explores both the promise and the risks of superhuman technology -- and how we might reclaim our agency to build a more hopeful and empowering digital future.

Conventional wisdom of the "software stack" approach to building applications may no longer be relevant. Enterprises are pursuing new ways of organizing systems and processes to become service oriented and event-driven. Leveraging existing infrastructural investments is a critical aspect to the success of companies both large and small. Enterprises have to adapt their systems to support frequent technological changes, mergers and acquisitions. Furthermore, in a growing global market, these systems are being called upon to be used by external business partners. Technology is often difficult, costly and complex and without modern approaches can prevent the enterprise from becoming agile.Enterprise Service Oriented Architectures helps readers solve this challenge in making different applications communicate in a loosely coupled manner. This classic handbook leverages the experiences of thought leaders functioning in multiple industry verticals and provides a wealth of knowledge for creating the agile enterprise.In this book, you will learn:• How to balance the delivery of immediate business value while creating long-term strategic capability• Fundamental principles of a service-oriented architecture (find, bind and execute)• The four aspects of SOA (Production, Consumption, Management and Provisioning)• How to recognize critical success factors to implementing enterprise SOAs• Architectural importance of service registries, interfaces and contracts• Why improper service decomposition can hurt you later rather than sooner• How application design and integration practices change as architects seek to implement the "agile" enterpriseAbout the AuthorsJames McGovern is an enterprise architect for The Hartford.
